Abstract

Screening tests against six plant pathogenic fungi were performed in order to develop biopesticides. Actinomycetes were used to discriminate Bacillus thuringiensis for wide use as a microbial pesticide. From more than 100 actinomycetes tested, twelve strains showed potent antifungal activities. We report in vivo screening results from fermentation broths of these twelve strains and identification of the strain taxa.
